During the early days of the COVID-19 lockdowns, Indiana’s 14 First Alert Chief Meteorologist Jeff Lyons set up a green screen in his living room and has been giving weather forecasts from home during the lockdown. And though he usually broadcasts alone, he’s gotten a new partner to share the weather with—his cat, Betty.
Betty made her debut when she wanted some attention during a weather broadcast. Lyons picked up the fluffy feline and cradled her in his arms while he talked about the weather. The response was so great, the station shared a little behind-the-scenes green screen fun with Betty and the clip that ended up airing on television.
Sometimes Betty just hangs out watching her human do his professional human thing.
However, like all cats, Betty doesn’t like to perform when requested. (Like how they only want to sit on your lap when you’re trying to work. Cats gonna be cats.)
